Sega Model 2 Exit Problem

[minipierre]

Hi. This emulator is working well, but I can't seem to find a way of getting the esc key to close down the emulator - it just switches from fullscreen mode to windowed mode. I have tried searching the forum's but can't seem to find a solution. I am running version 1.1a of the emulator. Ideally I'd also like a way to close the emulator with my 360 controller which works perfectly with closing retroarch with hotkey combinations.

Put this AHK script in the AHK tab of your Edit Emulator window of your Model 2 emulator.

$Esc::
{
    Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
}

Thank you, but that doesn't work. The emulator still just reverts to windowed mode. Any other suggestions kind sir?

I tested it and works perfectly for me.

[minipierre]

Hmmmm. I wonder what it can be! Frustrating as everything else works perfectly!

I just found the solution. Need to set AutoHotkey to run with admin privileges. Thanks for help. 

 

Is there a way of getting my 360 controller to exit the sega emulator?

Hello! I am facing the same situation in which I have the script pasted into the Exit AHK Setup (picture attached). M2 returns to the windowed mode and continues to play the rom. 

I do not know how to change AHK to run as admin, and I am not receiving any admin errors. All help is greatly appreciated!

You do not need to run as admin. You have the exit script in the wrong tab. It needs to be in the Running AutoHot Key Tab. The Exit tab is used if you have issue closing a game from the Pause Menu screen. I would also recommend changing to a more appropriate closing script like. The Process, Close version is a hard close of a program. 

$Esc::
{
	WinClose, ahk_exe {{{StartupEXE}}}
}

Thank you SO MUCH! I appreciate both the super fast answer that worked right away, but also the education on the tabs. I am learning a lot through this process. THANK YOU!
